Post subject:  I need someone coding an EA for me
Hey guys,

i just read a book from a german trader who presented a trading system in his book.
I think this could give a good EA, but i'm not capable of coding it, so i need some help.

At first, the needed indicators:
1. Bollinger Bands 16.2
2. SMA 16 (middle line of Bollinger Bands)
3. SMA 3
4. SMA 120 and 420 (just as indicators for support/resistance), not essentially needed

Entering a trade (long for example):
1. lower Bollinger Band were crossed by candle body and direction changed upwards ("Final Kiss" appeared)
2. Stochastic was in extreme area (below 20) and goes up
3. MACD builds first candle above zero line
4. price and MA3 crosses MA16
5. enter long position

I attached a picture that makes it more clearly.

What the EA should do:
-open position in the right direction
-set adjustable TP and SL (i think TP and SL for M15 timeframe should be somewhere between 10-20pips)
-as soon as possible set SL to breakeven + spread + X Pips (adjustable), so that the trade will be riskless and at least give you X pips profit
-all conditions for entering a trade should be configurable (i.e. MACD settings, Stoch) and should have a switch for turning on/off (if possible).

If somebody would code such an EA, that would be really great.
Other ideas are welcome.

Sorry for the bad screenshot, somehow my graphics program ruined it.

thank you in advance,
Doc

Hi Doc

During the years I spent in another forum building up the reputation that enabled me to set up this highly respected and successful forum, I would go into automatic code mode and churn out the ea on reading your post. It was fun and I still receive the occasional pm from people using successfully long forgotten ea's that I coded back then. Most of them were a waste of time and testing - and we are talking about several hundred ea's here.

Me and my fellow coders are less naive these days. Is this a system you are trading manually and successfully now? If your answer is 'yes' then provide the evidence and one of us will take notice. If your answer is 'no' then you are looking for someone to do the coding who is as naive now as I was a few years ago.

:D

Currently, my answer if i am successfully trading this system is no, because it requires a lot of screentime to find the entries. I will try to trade this system for a while now to show you.
